Marvel terrible film ginseng-"New Mutants"
Let’s talk about the movie "New Mutants" today.
The film title The New Mutants (2020), alias New Mutants (Hong Kong).
"New Mutants", which was released after five adjustments, was dubbed "New Mutants" by everyone. The final release date was 868 days later than the original schedule. This comic-modified movie is based on the Marvel comic of the same name, "New Mutants: The Devil Bear Legend", and tells the story of five new mutants.
Generally, there are a variety of reasons for movies that are adjusted, either because they are censored or because they avoid powerful enemies at the same time. Obviously, "New Mutants" belongs to the latter. Constantly adjusting files, the high-sounding reason is naturally because of the epidemic, but in fact, it is a full understanding of the hard power of the film.
"New Mutants" has nothing to do with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but belongs to Fox's previous X-Men universe. So don't think about it if you want to watch the linkage, don't be disgusting to the classic role, even if it is lucky.
The film tells about the new mutants defeating the demons in a closed hospital, discovering and controlling their superpowers.
The five freshman mutants are "Second Ah" Maisie Williams, Anja Taylor-Joy Mystery, Sunspot, Cannon, and Moon Star.
As a comic film, "The New Mutants" obviously has a higher threshold. The origins and abilities of the five new mutants are only briefly introduced in the film, and even the nicknames of the five are not introduced.
To learn more about these 5 newcomers, the audience also needs to further search to understand them. But the movie was too boring, basically the audience did not want to know more about the desire of these new mutants.
Here is a brief introduction.
Lupus was born in Scotland, an orphan, and was raised by the priest Craig. Can be transformed into wolves of various forms, possessing the abilities of beasts: super senses, strength, endurance, speed, and strong healing ability. When he was young, he told the priest about his mutation ability, but he was regarded as a heresy and wanted to burn her to death. The scar of W on her body is the mark left when she was injured.
Mystery is the younger sister of Steel Lux, and a witch who practices dark magic. He can open the Limbo channel to the edge of hell, and can also quickly teleport, and can use her own soul to transform a soul blade.
Sunspots were born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. They can absorb solar energy and release these energy, and their whole body turns black when they use their power. He couldn't control his ability and burned his girlfriend to death, which became his demons.
The cannon was born in Kentucky, USA, and can shoot himself out like a cannonball. The setting in the film is that when he was working in the mine when he was young, he suddenly induced superpowers and killed a bunch of workers including his father, which became his biggest pain.
Moon stars can create spiritual illusions, communicate with animals, and can also construct starlight energy into various shapes. By creating fantasies, she induced fears, desires, etc. in others' hearts. At the beginning, she couldn't control her own ability and caused a huge threat to the people around her.
"New Mutants" is such a movie that introduces the growth of newcomers.
If you take the route of youth comedy, you can have a lot of mature works for reference. "New Mutants" did not do this, but developed in the direction of horror. The originally energetic group of young people were forced to become screaming grudges.
However, the story of the film does not feel scary in the slightest. Instead, it just plays mystery on the screen, and finally presents the scary film we are most familiar with.
The five adolescents who were originally in the youth rebellious period were not given the kind of gentle and drizzling guidance of Professor X, but were imprisoned in a cage-like hospital and forced to receive a duck-filling reflection education.
Doctor Cecilia Reyes, the doctor in charge of education and guidance, is not wicked, just simple and rude.
The wrong method of education is used, and the ideological work is completely backward. Can this kind of work be done well?
The contradiction between the two sides accumulates more and more, and finally broke out due to the lack of control of doctors and students.
The film tries to use its own way to guide young people to correctly face the demons and overcome their fears. The actual treatment method is surprising.
The audience outside the screen knows that the heart demon is fake, and the characters on the screen also know the identity of the paper tiger of the heart demon a long time ago. Who are they scaring after all this? The way to deal with the final battle is also fake, I believe everyone will be full of thoughts after reading it, and "this is it? This is it?".
"New Mutants" wants to express too much, youth elements, superheroes, and horror elements are all mixed together, and the result has become nondescript. Pursuing big and complete is not as good as drilling a small but fine. Every element fails to play its due effect. Youth films become complaints and horror films become scary ones.
"New Mutants", which had a total collapse of box office reputation, directly blocked the original "New Mutants" trilogy plan. The X-Men series that was on fire that year was ended by such a work, which is really a loss for movie fans.
